Abstract

We attempted percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty in 89 patients with hypertension and renal-artery stenosis (including 51 with atheromatous and 31 with fibromuscular stenoses) who were then followed for an average of 16 months (range, 4 to 40). Angioplasty was technically successful in 87 per cent of the fibromuscular stenoses and in 57 per cent of the unilateral atheromatous stenoses but in only 10 per cent of the bilateral atheromatous stenoses. After successful angioplasty, blood pressure was reduced to normal or improved in 93 per cent of the patients with fibromuscular dysplasia and in 84 per cent of the patients with atheromatous disease. Angiographic follow-up at an average of 21.8 months in 15 patients showed persistent relief of the stenoses and a 12 per cent average increase in kidney size. Renal angioplasty is effective for long-term control of hypertension in patients with renal-artery stenosis due to fibromuscular dysplasia or unilateral non-ostial atheroma.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
